Charlotte & Carlo

Last weekend was one of my childhood friends' wedding. We go way back...I mean playing Barbie, way back.

Charly was the one that designed my website. This time I had the privilage to design something for her. They wanted red velvet cupcakes, so I had to come up with some decorations for these yummy desserts to fit in with the rest of the theme. Their beautiful wedding invitations (which Charlotte made) was the inspiration behind these. The wedding reception was at The Conservatory in Franschoek. Stunning venue!

Keep a look out for some of the wedding pics on Du Wayne Denton's blog. I know I can't wait to see it! They also had a couple shoot with Lizelle Lotter (who took the pics for my website) Take a look at this pretty amazing shoot on her blog.

Till then have a peek at some of the cake and venue pics that I took.

Isabel & Van Zyl

The wedding season has officially started and what a beautiful way to begin!

I'm so excited to share these amaaazing photographs by Nikki Meyer with you. Its just breathtaking. Isabel loves Cocoa Chanel so that was the obvious inspiration for her wedding. She sent me a beautiful mood board full of Chanel inspired pictures and eventually decided on a combination of two of my designs for her wedding cake.

Love Hearts

I've been sourcing a lot of sweets for dessert tables lately and have come across these love heart sweeties again. I used to love those when I was little.

The love heart/secret message sweets gave me an idea for love heart cookies. These cookies could add a nice home made touch to a place setting or it can be changed into a personalized name tag for each guest. Make your own muslin cloth bags and give them away as favors.

Black & White

Black and white is still one of the favorite color schemes for weddings. It's elegant, sophisticated and simple. It's also a very striking color combination for cakes.

Here's a few black and white cake designs.
